Nah the only OG colors I have are the 2014 B/W and the 2015 Chis and I'm perfectly fine when I miss out on a release. Makes me appreciate them that much more if I actually do land a pair.

Curious as to what you guys do in the winter when driving. Generally I have the heat coming from the floor but I also understand that direct heat is bad for the leather

judging by this question, I cannot safely say that this is not a concern for anyone

You don't have to worry about that. I think the concern is long term like storing your kicks in your boiler room.

Here ya go.
After 2 days of wearing the painting on the Sole cracked. But i can live with that. The painting on the leather is still smooth. Even on the creasing Part of the toe box no cracking.
Cost me roundabout half the little pot of the angelus Royal 5, 2 brushes and some nail polisher from my wife.
Took me like 4 hours and my painting Skills are 2.5 of 10

nice, im almost done with my black/green custom but im not making the sole green im using the stuff made to redue the bottoms of dress shoes so they will be black instead of green but they will not crack this way and until we can easily dye/paint the soles any color im good with blackHere ya go.

I currently just purchased a pair of CM and royal lows and sent them to a "Air Legends" customizer. Had them sole swap the lows to the CM and swap the tongue tag. Good thing you mentioned the paint on the bottom because i was strongly considering saving some money and just painting the bottoms but i figured i don't want to have to worry about the paint in the future. I'll have some DSLR pics when i receive mines in about 2 weeks
btw. wear sole savers!

I'd be fine if they were always in stock like AF1 so then I could beat up all my pairs and know I can scoop up another fresh pair.

Just mow the lawn a few times in them with tape over the midsoles. When they fade the grass will be ready to cut again.

Here's my finished Royal. For some reason, the dye didn't work as well as it did on my yellow pair, so it's kinda splotchy.
It also bled through my nice tape job so it got on the midsole. Had to paint over it (you actually see that it's painted, because the white is t as brute as the original midsole.

@AUG2ATL I found a lot of success using bleach to remove dye on the midsole.

Now thats a clean job. The Wings Logo Lookin awesome. Had to make a compromise on that one. What brush did you use on that Logo?

This time it was more difficult for me to do the logo. I actually deglazed all the areas I painted. It kinda flattened the logo, and made it hard to see when painting it.
I used the Angelus detail brushes (10/0 Shader and 20/0 Spotter).

Here are my Black and Greens. The bottom shoe's midsole had A LOT of dye splotches that I removed with bleach and dried in the sunlight. I preferred this method over paint because I am unsure if the paint will stay on the rubber midsole for a long period of time.

Thanks. With toothbrush and water I assume?

No I actually dipped a q-tip cotton swab in bleach and rubbed it on. Also drying in direct sunlight makes a big difference compared to drying indoors.
